Alexis sat down near by as Sakuya explained the suit, and Dani responded, looking over the damage to her Gunpla. No major damage, just a lot of little nicks and cuts form the look of it.

"Anything to lessen the stress natural Assimilation put on some one would be welcome to be honest." She said, setting the Viper down for now and rubbing her left knee, in the same place that was damaged on the Viper. "Besides, the people that had it before where basically criminals anyway, you can't really judge a system based on the use of people who'll abuse everything and every one to get what they want."

"That is true Allan said something along those lines I believe his exact words was "A glass full of water does not make it water" So you can't deem the system itself by what a few idiots has done with it." Sakuya said as she explained her own reasoning. "Anyway as I said this is a prototype made to offer better stability and a added fail safe so that it shuts itself down should it become to much. Though I really wish he didn't make it look so much like the pilot suit. Though the original design was based after the unicorn pilot suit which made it look like the you yourself activated a NTD mode" she continued on with a slight laugh the original design he had for it no offense she did not wan't to literally "become one with her gundam" as some would put it. "Beyond he is my official "sponsor" meaning in return for trying a few of his things I get easier access to needed kits and so forth. So we got some time you guys up for anything?" Sakuya asked as she grabbed her case.

"I'm game for something. After a grab some Hot and Cold." Alexis said grumbling slightly about how sore she was.

"Eh, i'm down for whatever." Dani said, and followed the group. "As to why i don't like it, it can affect the person using it, the tech should never be that way. To influence someone's personality and such. Alexis, you may get hurt, but there's nothign there to suggest it can control you." Dani said with a shrug. "Regardless, if you want to use it, then so be it." she added.

"Lets got to a different subject shall we than?" Sakuya spoke up as she walked away from the stage. "There is bound to be something out there of interest right?" She said as she exited the doors to the arena she had no true goal at the moment well beyond stopping at Alexis's room for as she suggested. "Wonder what the next event for the tournament will be" She muttered to herself quietly as she looked towards both Dani and Alexis to see what they thought.

Alexis walked into her room got what she was after and came back out in time for Sakuya's question.

"In all honesty, I'm hoping for something non combative, really for no other reason then the change of pace." She answered as she applied some of the Icy Hot to her knee and other stiff/sore joints "That, and the look on every ones face at a sudden 'Gunpla dance fighting' match or some such silliness"

"Hmmmm.... had not considered a dance fight in the middle of a gunpla tournament." Dani said blankly as she considered the possibilities. "Despite being the house contestant, i have not been kept in the loop of what's coming up." she added and ran through possibilities in her head. "Sculpture making utilizing the weapons we have?" she threw out there. "and if we can create settings where gunpla are sized as humans, why not a bank heist or a hostage situation of cops v robbers." she speculated.

"Those would be interesting events if anything" Sakuya said as she thought on how a statue building contest would work with some gunpla. "If im going to be honest I kind of like the idea of a dance contest it would be interesting to see." Sakuya said imagining some people trying to dance to pass the event it would be hilarious to see if anything. "Though with that said a sculpting contest using the gunpla's weapons would be a good way to test how creative and how resourceful a person is." She continued on imaging the sheer chaos each would cause.

"Or for a laugh with all the abominations that will likely get made." Alexis snarked. "Personally, I'd prefer the dance off, cause you know some one is gonna whip out a Gun Tank and try to bust a move."

"i hope it's some level of seriousness." Dani said with a shrug. "I honestly don't know if either of those actually have to do with fighting. control over a gunpla yes, but.... i.... eugh... i hope it's not too silly." Said dani with a scratching of her neck. "hell, even the race tends to be a better test of control skill." she said with a shrug.

"I wouldn't be so positive the gunpla world championships was known for some pretty out there events." Sakuya spoke as she heard what Dani said while yes she would like some serious events it was unlikely to have it all be serious. "The 7th tourney had ball catching, and some event with a flagpole" She continued on speaking from some of the odd events she heard about "not to mention racing has been in near every single tourney since the 7th." She finished. It was going to be odd to some but it was all about imagination in the long one since as the Meijin put it "Dare I say it? Gunpla has no limits!"

Alexis snicker as Sakuya quoted the Meijin. "Fighting is an easy way to prove mastery over your Gunpla. Anyone can learn to become a good fighter with enough drive, a real test of mastery is how quickly one can adapt to a odd rule set or a mandatory use of a skill set not normally seen."

"I've been in a wheelchair for the longest of times, so i sincerely hope it's not dancing. atop the fact i cannot dance whatsoever." Dani pointed out to the group, relaxing with her hands behind her head. This was indeed one of the more obvious and almost laughable points dani had going for her.

"Im sure come high water you will come up with something in the end" Sakuya said a small smile gracing her lips she had the utmost faith that even if a dance competition was to happen Dani even if she couldn't dance would perform something that will be remembered for a long while. "Still should be interesting to see what they do to one up themselves once again this year." She continued as it held barring the really climatic end where the plavsky crystal went berserk at the end of the 7th world tournament they have always one upped themselves each following tournament with new rules and etc.

The next day started the beginnings of the next set of events. "Prepare yourself fighters for these next events challenges not your skills in a fight but rather your skills as a builder. The first event of the day is the GUNPLA RACE!!! Though thats not all to add more of a challenge the central lake will house many underwater mobile suits that will actively go out and attack the nearest contest."

Alexis stood with the rest of the contestants and listened to the even announcement, a race it seemed "Neat" was her reaction to it. She decided to use SR Exia for this one, since it was much faster then the Viper at the top end due to Trans-Am. The 'threat' of AI controlled harassers didn't register with her as a big deal. It just meant she'd need to stay away from the water.

Dani breathed a sigh of relief as she felt the pressure of a dance off be taken off her chest. "I don't know what suit i'll use." she said scratching her head. "i might have to be cheeky...." she said, sighing and staring at the race announcement.

Sakuya smirked as she took out her gunpla she was confident in its speed after all there was little to none that can keep up with its speed based on her calculations of others suits. She strolled calmly to her point the race was starting as she set down her gunpla revealing a slightly customized GP-04 Gerbera. Nothing beat the classics as some would say and this suit in particular was meant for speed even in its source material. "Let's get this underway the track is straight forward race but be prepared beyond the central lake housing underwater suits there are other various "traps and triggers" that can affect the track as well now lets get this started racers to your places!" Sakuya heard Kirara the "announcer" for the tournament announce.

Dani was smiling and happy. She was going to cheese this, but she didn't care at this point. A race was a race and she stood at the starting line with a Crossbone Gundam, full cloth attached to it. She had the Suit at full combat load. it might not have been the best option, but she had plans.
"alright, i know i'm ready...." she said at the starting line.

Alexis's SR Exia hovered at the starting line with the rest of the contestants, ready to go. She'd left the Blue Moon GN Blade off the kit for this race, the Moonlight GN Sword and Star Light GN Shield would be all she brought with her for non fixed weapons as she had no delusions about this being a 'straight up race', no she was expecting more then a few people to start shooting.

Hearing that Sakuya smirked choosing not to use the sturm faust boosters on the kit and started to speed off. The increases she made to its speed was already showing itself as she quickly able to get ahead of the others. Already she could see the aquatic suits dragging those who strayed to close to the waters edge downward. Though she was surprised to see more than just mobile suits but they also had mobile armors as well since she could swear she spotted a shamblo dragging a unfortunate jesta downward.
